Installed SQL Server, Yet Not Listening On Any Port
Jan 17, 2005
Hi all,
I'm working on a school project on web and mobile applications, and had decided to use MS SQL Server for my backend database.
However, after I've installed MS SQL Server 2000, I ran a port scan and I couldn't find the server running on any ports (MySQL is running on my port 3306, but I guess it doesn't matter) Can something drop some hints on how to debug the problem?
I'm running on Athlon XP 2000+ w/ Windows XP Professional SP2
I have SQL Server in NT 4.0 which has two IP addresses. How to force the SQL Server to listen to specific IP address ? We can make client to listen to specific port & IP and let me know the way to configure SQL Server to listen only to specific port that will make to ensure that SQL Server can be communicated throught that specific port.
Your answer would be highly appreciated. regards, Nana
Hi. I'm a SQL Server novice, so apologies if any of this sounds simple.I am running Windows XP SP2, and have just installed SQLServer 2000. Ineed another application to connect to SQLServer, and am specifying itto do so via localhost:1433, but keep getting an error whenever I trydoing so saying it cannot connect to the database. A colleague of minehas the exact same set up on his machine, and he can connect to SQLServer fine. Running 'netstat -a' at the command line on his machinereveals that the system is listening to port 1433/ms-sql-s. Runningnetstat on my machine shows that the system is not listening to1433/ms-sql-ms. I have checked in Network Config in SQLServerEnterprise Manager, and TCP/IP is set to be using 1433.To confirm this, my application can connect over the network to mycolleague's SQL Server. but he cannot connect over the network to mine.So I'm pretty sure the issue is related to this 1433/ms-sql-s problem.Does anyone know how to resolve this? Many thanks.
I have a named sql instance on SQL 2012. The issue is that the clients is having problem connecting to it when the firewall is on, this is not consistent. The connection is fine when I disabled the firewall. When I turned the Windows firewall back on, it will work for awhile and it fails. I checked the SQL configuration manager and saw that a dynamic port is assigned to the named instance. I did put that in the firewall rule and unblock it. I also put TCP 1433 and 1434 as well as the browser service port, TCPUDP 2382 and it still didn't work.What is the best way to determine what port does the named instance are listening?
I am running SQL Server 2000 on windows XP pro. I have configured (enabled) TCP/IP protocol and left the default port 1433, but SQL server still does does not listen for client connections.
Can anyone tell me what might stop SQL server from listening???
With the server running, here is what I see (nothing on 1433...):

I want to find whether SQL Server 2005 x86 is installed or SQL Server 2005 x64 is installed programatically(Any API would do.) If anyone can recommend a registry key that I can rely on find whether it is a 32 bit or 64 bit SQL Server that would suffice.
I have an installation of SQL Server Express 2005 installed on a Windows 2003 server. Through the forums on the board I have been able to turn on and make sure that port 1433 and port 1434 are turned on and listening. However, both ports show that they are listening on IP address 0.0.0.0. and I need for port 1433 to either listen on the server's main IP address or at the very least on 127.0.0.1. I have set them to enabled in the Configuration manager but they still don't appear to be listening on either of those IP addresses. Could some one tell me if there's another configuration change I might need to make?
One of my production SQL Server 2000 systems is listening on TCP and Named Pipes, but not on Shared Memory.
This server has a lot of scheduled jobs that are internal to this box. I assume these jobs would benefit from using shared memory instead of TCP/IP, but I can't figure out why it doesn't use shared memory already and how to correct that.
Hi Friends, I have a question. At my home computer i downloaded and installed VWD. As usual it also installed Sqlexpress as part of the installation(i checked the option). Later on i downloaded Management studio separately so i am fine with my home computer as every thing is free. But at work we decided to develop application using VS 2005 and Sqlserver 2005. So we bought and installed VS2005 professional edition at work and it also installed Sqlexpress during the installation as a defualt desktop engine. I am fine with that too. But i am not understing where do i get the Management studio? Is it some thing i could get it off the web for free or what? I am not sure we would have an option while installing the VS 2005 professional that also does install management studio and we need to check that option. I am not sure if we could get the management studion off the web for free and and evelop applications.
i setup a 2 node sql cluster but 1433 is not listening. I check sql configuration manager and entered 1433 for all ip addresses restarted services but still not 1433
I have been using Sql server Reporting services 2000 and i never had these problems I tried firing up my Sql server Reporting services 2005 today i went through the reporting services conf manager and then got to the "database setup" stage and bingo can't get through this error below
* On my PC i have Reporting services 2000 and Reporting services 2005 installed and my
is working ok

Hello. I'm a novice with SQL Server. I set up a SQL Server instance using Enterprise Manager and I want to find out what port that instance is listening to, because it's not listening to the default.
Is there a way I can specify a port for the server to listen to?
Hello. I'm a novice with SQL Server. I set up a SQL Server instance using Enterprise Manager and I want to find out what port that instance is listening to, because it's not listening to the default.
Everything is on my local machine, this is a development database.
Is there a way I can specify a port for the server to listen to?
I have access to the default instance of a SQL Server ..... I have access to the QA only .. by reading the registry through the QA I get to knw that there are additional 4 more instances on the Server ..... is is possible to get the port on which they are listening using the QA ....
I knw that we can go to the servers network utility & see it there in the TCP /IP ... but i dont have access to that , neither do i have access to the error logs that tell me , on which port is SQL Server listening to
We have default instance "MSSQLSERVER" with Port number 1433. We Installed another Instance "MGMT" on the same windows server, it came as same Port number "1433".
We decided to Change the Port number for Instance "MGMT".
1. We changed the port number for "MGMT" to like "1234"
2. After the change we did telnet to "MGMT" Instance with "1433", it worked.
3. Then we changed the Port number for Instance "MSSQLSERVER" also to like "4321".
4. After change of these setting and followed with rules framed in link as said: http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3689846
5. Now we did telnet with changed port number, it works fine.
6. We can not do telnet with Port number 1433 for both Instances "MSSQLSERVER" and "MGMT".. This is fine, what we want, and what we intent to do...
Question to MVP OR SQL Gurus:
A) If you want to change port number to Second Instance, shall we need to change for Default Instance?
B) How the port numbers will be configured? please advice.
I have a server running SQL Server 2005 Dev behind a firewall that blocks the default SQL Server port. So, I changed the port that SQL server uses to another port. How do I connect to the database instance with SQL Server Management Studio. I have tried:
On all of these, I get an error 25 - Connection string is not valid. I have the surface area configured correctly (i.e. named pipes and TCP/IP are both turned on), and the sql server browser is running. I can ping the server just fine, and when I go to GRC.com and do a shields up report it lists my port of choice as being open.
What am I missing?
I also set the native client configuration's default port to the port I want to connect to, and it appears that that didn't work either.
I tried creating an alias to the server to get it to connect to analyze the server but it will not recognize the SQL 2000 server as a valid server to analyze. I can use the alias to connect in EM or SSMS. Any ideas? The server is not clustered and is at SP4. I've connected to several others in my environment but this one is causing me grief!
Hi there, I want to change the default sql-server port number 1433 to a new one. Can i do that? If yes, how? Also, i have noticed that there is no port number option in the sql server 2005 management studio login window. So, what if the server has changed its port number? Any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks
I am unable to access the default port 1433 on my SQL 2003 server. There is no firewall. I run telnet <ip> <port> and get "Connection failed" which explains my inability to connect to the server for weeks. I have being unable to connect to the server after I uninstalled sql 2000 and reinstalled it on my 2003 server. Some of the things I have checked is Network Configuration in EM. Named Pipes and TCP/IP is installed with port set to 1433. HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftMSSQLServerClientSuperSocketNetLibTcpDefaultPort port is set to 1433. Is there anything I need to configure on the server side to have the default sql server port enabled.
Thanks for Microsoft's Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Windows Server 2003 that make the security much stronger. However, besides the invisible benefit so far, I have become the victim of this security policy.
I have several named instances of SQL 7/2000 installed in my machine. They are not visible out of the Microsoft new fire wall. I need to access the instances from outside the fire wall, but I don't know which port I should open for the instances.
From SQL online, the default instance of SQL server is connected through TCP/IP by default port 1433. I could successful open that port and made the default instance visible to outside. However, the port 1433 doesn't work for the named instances. SQL online said, the port for named instance is dynamically (by default) chosen the first time the instance is started. So, actually, I have no way to know the port.
Is there anyway that I can check the database or somewhere to get the port that is used by the named instance?
I want to know how to check whether SQL Server 2000 can listen to port 1433 or not. If I run netstat -a, am I suppose to see port 1433 regardless of what service pack I have applied to SQL Server 2000?
I have changed SQL Server from default port to another port number. All appears fine. If SQL Server is restarted it is all fine, however, when the server is restarted SQL Server fails to start. If you then log into the server and manually start the services they start just fine. So, it appears that something blocks the port or uses the port upon server startup for a few seconds. The AV folks say that they are not blocking ports and that it AV service actually starts 15 seconds after the SQL start failure.So, the question becomes is how can I track down what is blocking or using that port?

Is there any concerns or problems with forward a port to SQL server from our internet firewall so that you can access the databases over the internet? Is it a standard practice to do this in order to remotely access the SQL server. Or is there a better way to do this? Also, if it is ok to do this are any things you need to do to enhance your security from vulnerabilities being open to the internet.
Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated on this subject.
When I change the tcp/ip port to anything other than 1433 my SSIS nor DTS packages run successfully. Does the tcp/ip port have to be on 1433 for the SSIS or DTS packages to run successfully?
I have SQL Server 2000 installed on my Windows XP (SP2) machine. I have the port set to 1433 (under Server Network Utility-->General-->TCP/IP). Here's the problem: when i run
netstat -anb
nothing is running on port 1433. What i DO have is this:
